Latest reviews of our Wedding Violinists in Exeter
"We didn't get to meet Anisa on the day as lots going on, but she played beautifully. We had 'a sky full of stars' played whilst I walked down the isle and it was amazing. Also had Bonobo and Kygo playing, so a great mix of songs and genres. Would highly recommend Anisa x "

"Anisa was superb! My husband and I booked her for our wedding ceremony, and we had comments from many of our guests about how beautifully she played and how much she had added to the occasion. Anisa was very flexible and communicative before the event (including specific song requests), and was a consummate professional throughout. Highly recommend. "
Thomas hired Anisa for a Wedding (available in Exeter)
"Anisa was an absolute dream to communicate with. She was very professional and seems a really lovely person. She absolutely nailed the performance as well and made my wedding proposal incredibly special to us. She went the extra mile and sent us a recording of her playing the song so we had a memento from the proposal. The composition was also fantastic. I would not hesitate to book her again, and recommend her massively. Thank you so much Anisa! "

FAQs about hiring Wedding Violinists in Exeter
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of music can a violinist play?
Pretty much anything! Violinists will usually be most comfortable playing classical music, but that doesn't mean they won't be able whip up fresh renditions of your favourite pop, folk, or jazz tunes. Best to check first before asking them to play krautrock though.
Will I need to provide the violinist with any equipment?
Other than a seat for breaks, probably not. If your venue is small, they will likely play unamplified. All they'll need to make the music happen is their violin, a bow, and a receptive audience (oh, and probably a music stand). If your venue is larger, they should be able to provide amplification.
Do violinists normally play with backing tracks?
It depends. If you only want the violinist’s performance to include classical pieces, they probably won’t need backing tracks. If the violinist’s performance includes pop songs or other styles, they may be able to provide backing tracks to fill out their performance. They’ll often perform the melody line of popular tunes, alongside pre-prepared backing tracks (think: ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran, or ‘Skyfall’ by Adele - these songs sound great played on violin!).
